    If you let me know the sizes for the targets ie. diameter of target part. I can see how much some 6mm AR is and get my brother to cut out on water jet. Be cool to make one for myself as well

    6mm would be a bit thin for anything big I would think.

    My bad, didn’t read OP properly. Happy to get 10mm AR500. It’s not actually that expensive. $40 for a 300mm round AR500 gong through fletchers. Shouldn’t need a very big piece to cut all the targets from.

    Thats cheap for a 12 inch cut plate if that's correct I would be interested in some.

Size:  28.4 KB This was August last year. I get a pretty sharp discount. @Marty Henry These are 12mm, they don't do 10mm in AR500 anymore, well they didn't at that time.
    I did a heap for the forum a while ago but it was a nightmare sorting out pick ups. I'll get another quote for ya, you'll need to blow a hole with gas torch as they charge heaps just to cut a hole.
